My Toyota Camry started blowing smoke every morning when I start it, after few seconds it stops smoke and just blows steam like a is supposed to. it won't blow any smoke for the rest of the day until I park it over night and next morning it will do same thing so I scanned my Toyota Camry 2003 and it showing me these two problems.. how do I fix it?

As much as you need to resolve these error codes I have every reason to believe your car is burning oil...

Not plenty, just a little and within a minute it stops... It happens on cold morning starts.. smoke just smells normal

You don't have any issue in that regards. Many cars do same.

But for the trouble codes, car copy gazzuzz, Kingreign etc you can also do some personal research on them in YouTube

I had a problem similar to this with my TC 2008,I'll advice you to check YouTube for a fix,there's one telegram channel that offers a fix for this shit too, don't remember the name though.but it's not a really serious issue though just annoying

Valve stem seals.

You need a competent technician to fix it.

Happened to me before. How long since you last changed your oil?

No let any technician fvck your car up ooo it’s a factory isshhh simply get those codes sorted out and you are good to go.

a mechanic told me this, it's the guy that fixes my car and he's good but I don't want anything that will involve me opening they engine of my car by naija tech that I haven't seen or verified to do that and the engine still functions like it wasn't touched.

2AZ is an old engine, in fact, it's 2 engine generations old. Any technician that doesn't know how to open it and out it back properly, shouldn't be caught near a Toyota.

Bro. If your valve seals are loosing oil, no one will tell you before you know your car really smokes in the morning. You will get a blue smoke from your exhaust and then it goes away till you park for a long time and it will reoccur again even in hot sun.

Your car steams on cool mornings and that is generally caused by condensation. It is Normal! Your engine isn't smoking.

Pls don't waste your money on Mobil 1 cos I'm 100% sure that your engine will still short oil but just fix d code and continue using your previous oil.

Yea but I’d rather waste my money on QUALITY than having to consider full engine replacement because I wanted something cheaper..

I mean even Castrol is damn expensive so what are you then suggesting?

Those selling quality engine oil, we tell u if your car is tokunbo then buy expensive or foreign quality oil but if u have been using Naija 20w50 for long just continue using d oil cos u have abuse d engine already. To my main point, the engine is shortened oil but Mobil 1 is not d solution to short of oil cos I still repeat that d engine will still short oil with Mobil 1 of 25K, y wasting money on that, its better to continued using d previous oil until d engine is pack off or if he can rebuilt d engine, he or she can start using d quality oil u talked abt.

I never said Mobil 1 will solve the problem all I said was stop damaging your engine with Visco oil abi Milo oil (never even heard of it)

Ps: my Mobil 1 is shipped directly from America to my doorstep...

Even for yankee sef niggas still dy refill Mobil 1 container with substandard oil.... Becareful who you buy from.
